Seems like the movement distortion effect (MDE?) would depend on the direction
of motion.
Fast movers in the horizontal direction would indeed appear elongated or
shortened depending on direction of motion.
Fast movers in the vertical direction would have their horizontal dimensions
not strictly horizontal anymore but have a vertical component to it.
